Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.3.3: ------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fix non-cuddling ++ operators to work with Octave >= 7.. ** Dont duplicate demo figures in following non figure demos. (Bug #58126) Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.3.2: ------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Fix empty '{}' to work with Octave >= 6.. Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.3.1: ------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Add lacking information to the informational json file (this file is written since version 0.3.0 of generate_html). Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.3.0: ------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Nested namespaces and classes under namespaces are now handled in generating the alphabetical function database. ** Toplevel functions are now in separate files of the alphabetic function database, and in the same directory tree as classes and namespaces. ** Function html helptexts are now in a directory tree corresponding to that of the alphabetic function database. ** Add repository link to index page. ** In the individual options, as returned by `get_html_options' and used in html generation, replacement strings ("%...") are not considered anymore. Instead, options can be anonymous functions which use their arguments to configure the output string. So if users manually changed options with replacements, they have to do it differently now; looking into the `get_html_options.m' file will help to figure out the correct way. ** Add Octave Forge stylesheet, icons, and javascript files. ** Page margins of Octave Forge additional package documentation are now configurable with the Octave Forge stylesheet. Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.2.0: ------------------------------------------------------------------- ** New function `check_duplicates' checks for duplicate symbols by querying a server at Octave Forge. ** New function `urlview' asynchroneously starts a browser for an url, supports sending parameters with POST and GET methods. ** Vectorize generation of alphabetic function database. ** Make alphabetic databases for class methods and namespaced functions, too. Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.1.13: ------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Changes to the package index page o generate_package_html: Make icons clickable. ** Change URLs o get_html_options: Use the new https URLs for the octave-forge (default) style. ** Bug fixes o html_help_text, generate_package_html: Handle undocumented functions. o generate_html_manual (get_txi_files): Ignore version-octave.texi, which was previously named version.texi. ** Improve release Makefile o Makefile: Make release tarballs reproducible Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.1.12: ------------------------------------------------------------------- ** New option for generate_package_html o generate_package_html, get_html_options: Add new field 'older_versions_download' to the option structure. This field makes it possible for packages to customize (or suppress) the "older versions" download link, which is actually Octave Forge-specific (patch #8984). ** Changes to the package index page o generate_package_html: The content of the optional "url" field of the DESCRIPTION file is now shown beneath the news link (patch #8990). Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.1.11: ------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Content of autoload field not shown anymore o generate_package_html: index.html no longer displays autoload information (and there is no other place in the generated HTML with that information). The main reasons for this change are: 1) there are no Octave Forge packages that autoload anymore, 2) support for autoload of packages will be completely removed in Octave 4.2.x. ** New option for generate_package_html o generate_package_html, get_html_options: Add new field 'package_doc_options' to the option structure (patch #9002). This field makes it possible to pass options to makeinfo when building the package documentation. Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.1.10: ------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Bug fixes o generate_package_html: Fixed title of copying and news page. o generate_package_html: Support multiple image references per line (to copy images into the output directory). ** Other changes o generate_package_html: Short description has been updated for redesign of Octave-Forge package overview page (patch #8787). Short description is made of the first sentence from the full package desription. o generate_package_html: Package documentation may use vector graphics (svg images, bug #45628). Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.1.9: ------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Bug fixes o generate_package_html: Add missing "alt" attribute to <img> tags in index.html. o html_help_text: Fix crash for demos in @class methods (bug #44972). o generate_package_html: Fix crash when options.include_package_news is false. o texi2html: Fix a bug that caused tex2html to output an empty page with TexInfo 4.x when there is only one @deftypefn and no following @deftypefnx (bug #45530). o generate_package_html: Fix a bug that prevented generate_package_html from being run twice when package_doc contains images (bug #45111). o html_help_text: Use a simple deterministic counter to enumerate images instead of a random number (thus avoiding the risk of having one image overwritten by another one). ** Other changes o generate_package_html: Better-looking "News" and "Package documentation" links (patch #8698). o generate_package_html: Improve dependencies display: also display system requirements (bug #45499). Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.1.8: ------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Bug fixes o html_help_text.m, texi2html.m: Fix a bug that was the cause of unmatched </p> tags in the HTML output. o get_html_options.m: Fix default header (add !DOCTYPE, charset, etc.) and Octave Forge header (unordered <ul> </ul> lists are not allowed to be nested in <p> </p> blocks). ** Other changes o html_help_text.m: Now entirely based on texi2html.m o texi2html.m: Use <dt class="deftypefn"> </dt> blocks both with TexInfo 4.x and with TexInfo 5.x. Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.1.7: ------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Bug fixes o Omit the "News" link if there is no NEWS file, instead of generating an error (the NEWS file is optional, according to the manual) o Fix broken links on the NEWS, COPYING and overview pages (the link that was supposed to point to the index.html of the package) o Protect symbols <, > and & by replacing them with the corresponding HTML entity (<, > and &) everywhere it makes sense o get_txi_files.m: Update the list of ignored *.texi files o generate_package_html.m: Let email addresses appear if they exist in DESCRIPTION (they were previously hidden because of the < > delimiters) o generate_package_html.m: Fix anchor names o html_help_text.m: Hide figures only if gnuplot is in use (see bug #33180) o html_help_text.m: Prevent empty <pre> </pre> blocks (bug #44451) ** New features o Introduce a new %charset variable for header template, which defaults to utf-8 (instead of the hard-coded iso-8859-1 that was previously in use) ** Documentation o Add generate_operators to the INDEX o Provide minimal (one-line) help text for generate_html_manual ** Cleanup o Remove obsolete function generate_alphabet o Remove unused "docbrowser" style Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.1.6: ------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Create page with content of each package NEWS file. ** Create package documentation in html from Texinfo sources in doc/. Note that this is the package documentation/manual, and in addition to the help text of individual functions. ** Fix broken links from the pages of methods of a @class type, to the package index package. ** Link on each page header to the source of Octave Forge now points to the code page of Octave Forge website. It previously pointed to the SVN repository in Sourceforge which has been retired. Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.1.5: ------------------------------------------------------------------ ** Updated link for the Octave Forge SVN repository. Summary of important user-visible changes for generate_html 0.1.4: ------------------------------------------------------------------ ** HTML pages with documentation of each function now mention the package that the function belongs too and have a link for the package main page. ** Autoload field when generating a package index.html page is now correct. ** keywords on the `See also:' will be interpreted properly (rather than just function names).
